Colorful spacious cottages. Friendly neighbors and lots of area to run play, grill to your hearts content, ride bikes, adult beverages are allowed on Fort Morgan beach, not like Gulf Shores or Orange Beach.
We are a crazy community for golf carts we love them, we take them down the trail, right to the beach also to the local restaurant and shops. We cannot drive them on the main road through! If your here for special occasions you will see a golf cart parade. Those of us that live here call each other family we love the Rookery 3 and we love people who enjoy it with us.
Renting golf carts is very common here.
A lot of people like to bike ride, bring your own, or Fort Morgan Beach Rentals has them and they also offer chairs, tents, kayaks etc.
It is about a 10 min walk to the beach, even though it’s directly across the street, it’s just the way the access points are to get there. There is a public car park and you can also park along Cortez Street . Bring your skate-boards bring your scooters the streets by the beach are nice and smooth. Gulf State park is popular for a bike ride. Bike rental is available there also! Rent a slingshot and drive Fort Morgan road and enjoy the drive the smell of the beach air. Drive to the Fort at the end of the peninsula. Rent some kayaks and cruise around the bay that backs up to Rookery for the day maybe even see the sunset while on kayaks it’s quite breathtaking!

What guests say
We really enjoyed our stay. This place has everything that you need. Be sure to take the host's suggestions about shopping before you get there. The nearest grocery store is 15 miles away. Tacky Jacks restaurant is a short drive and is a fun place for the kids, get there early. Overall, This is a great place for couples or families with children. I would put it in my top 5 of places I have stayed in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area. I would recommend this to anyone and look forward to coming back in the near future.
Our stay was wonderful. The pool was located directly behind our home which was amazing! The home was equipped with plenty of pool and beach accessories. The house was clean and the beds and pillows were comfy.
The home very clean. Check in was easy. The beds were very comfortable we had a blast in the pool!
